Olympic silver medalist Arsen Julfalakyan, speaking about his fight with Azerbaijani wrestler, said the nationality of athlete does not matter for him while in Azerbaijan the athletes who win Armenians get special awards, even if they do not win any medals.

“If you come to the floor you should win, but in case of Azerbaijani athletes the sense of responsibility rises tenfold,” he said.

Earlier Julfalakyan said during his fight with Azerbiajni athlete President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, who was in the hall, asked whether the Armenian wrestler was strong enough to win the Azerbaijani one, getting positive answer he left the hall.

Julfalakyan said unlike Armenian athletes the Azerbaijani ones more highlight the fight with Armenians.
